Section 896 Soldiers and Horses (1)

"The envoy is here, on behalf of King Ding Ling, what do you want to say?" Hu Tu Tu asked, chuckling, his eyes misty.

When Lan Xingyi heard this, he bowed his head slightly and said, "King Ding Ling ordered me to ask Lord Hulu ......."

He raised his head and looked straight at Hu Xuan Tuge, his eyes sharp: "My lord, do you want to unify the nine divisions of Wuheng and become the king of Wuheng?" ”

Hu Tu Ge's heart immediately pounded.

King Wuheng?!

Who wouldn't!

The nine divisions of Wuheng span the entire territory of Munan.

From the thriving Guze of the water tiger to the snowy Chishan, from the Hanhai to the plug, the dome of the Wuheng people is densely covered in the vast land of tens of thousands of miles.

Together, there are nearly 200,000 people in the nine provinces, with a population of more than one million!

As long as they are united, they can immediately grow into monsters like the Xiongnu Empire.

Perhaps, there is still a chance to destroy the Xiongnu and share the world equally with the Han people.

Be a Wuheng Shan Yu!

Calling for extravagance and slaughtering!

Just thinking about this title, Hu Xuan Tu was already in a state of heart, and it was difficult to restrain himself.

But......

Hu Lu Tu knows better that Hu Lu does not have this energy.

Not to mention the people of the Han Dynasty, even the Xianyu Department is not something that can be gnawed by the Hulu Department.

The cavalry of the Xianyu people can leave a deep impression on him.

Lan Xingyi looked at Hu Lu's expression, and knew that the other party had already moved, so he stepped forward and said, "As long as the adult is willing, King Ding Ling is willing to help the adult!" ”

"Now, King Ding Ling controls 10,000 strings, and the troops are in the bow of Lushui, if the adult nods, King Ding Ling can lead the iron cavalry, drive straight in, and wipe out Xianyu, Nanchi and Zhushui for the adult, and help the adult enter the Nanchi ......"

Hu Xuan Tu listened, and finally couldn't control himself, panting, staring at the other party fiercely, and asked in a low voice, "Then what price do I need to pay?" ”

"Hehe......" Lan Xingyi smiled: "Your Excellency only needs to provide convenience, and don't block the path of Ding Lingwang's army......"

"Also, the Lord must provide King Ding Ling with a place to raise and repair......

When Hu Xuan Tu heard this, his expression changed several times, but he finally couldn't resist such a temptation, pursed his lips and said, "King Ding Ling's request, Lord Ben agreed!" ”

"Just ......"

He suddenly chuckled: "I don't know why King Ding Ling is here to stir up the crowd so much?" ”

"Kill someone!" Lan Xingyi lowered his head and paused word by word: "Zhang Zizhong, the envoy of the Han Dynasty!" ”

Hu Xuan Tu heard it, but he didn't believe it, sneered a few times, shook his head and said, "Don't lie to me, messenger!" ”

"How dare you deceive?" Lan Xingyi bowed and said, "Don't hide it, this order was given by the great Fox Deer Gudan Yu himself......"

"As long as the adults can help the Great Huns kill this person, the position of King Wuheng, the Great Huns will definitely be able to take it for the adults!"

The corners of Hu Xuan Tu's mouth twitched slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he finally swallowed back, turned around, and said, "Please tell the envoy to tell King Ding Ling that the Ministry of Hu Xuan will not interfere with King Ding Ling's actions!" ”

"Thank you, sir!" Lan Xingyi happily bowed and thanked him.

……………………

On the banks of the Gonglu River, the dry river seemed to flow again overnight.

At first, it was just a trickle.

But within two days, it was a rushing river.

With the river comes countless lives.

In a short period of time, the Gobi Desert and the desert, which were originally barren and lifeless, have become a sea of green.

There are even butterflies, flying from the grasslands far away, dancing among these oases.

As a result, the war horses of the Huns immediately became lively.

At the same time, there are also local worm people.

So, the Hujie cavalry found their entertainment.

Along the Gonglu River, they wantonly hunted and drove the Worm tribes, ravaging these peoples who were still using stone and bone tools.

What was originally a river of life quickly turned into a river of blood.

Hundreds and thousands of wriggling herders were killed on both sides of the re-flowing Gonglu River and in the grasslands.

Their corpses can be seen everywhere in the yellow sand.

Wei Lu leaned on a sand willow that smelled the smell of water and began to grow leaves again.

Looking at the callers who are 'playing' in the distance.

These crazy cavalrymen, living at the foot of the Xiongnu's Golden Mountain, fought fiercely against the Cypriots from the west for generations.

The climate of Jinshan is cold and cruel.

Local products are scarce and the land is barren.

However, at every moment, there may be Cypriot barbarians from the west, crossing the mountains and invading the pastures of the Xiongnu.

Therefore, the Hujie people are often in a bitter battle in the local area.

The difficult environment has developed a rugged character of Hujieren.

It also made these callers extremely brutal and barbaric.

In today's Xiongnu, they are the only tribe that still insists on using meteor hammers and bronze collars as their main weapons.

At the same time, it is also one of the few Xiongnu tribes that still uses human bone vessels.

Their favorite tradition is to make the skulls of the enemies they have slain into drinking vessels and display them in their vaults.

The more skulls and wine vessels in the vault, the more respected they are.

"These barbarians, don't stop for a moment......" Wei Lu shook his head and sighed a little.

Hujie people fight, not afraid of death, not afraid of everything.

During the battle of Yuwushui, the Hujie cavalry once stormed a main army of the Han family, and after paying 30% of the battle, they still insisted on not retreating, and finally broke into the Han array and fought with the Han foot soldiers.

Therefore, the main force of the Han family was forced to mobilize a part of the reserve cavalry to go to support.

This success enabled Shan Yu's main cavalry to advance in an orderly manner and recapture several important places controlled by the Han army.

It laid the foundation for the Battle of Yuwushui and the victory of the Xiongnu.

It is also for this reason that the Hujie cavalry became famous in the first battle.

The late Marquis Shan Yu even said, "The gods have ordered me to rule over all the people who draw the bow, and the warriors of Hujie are the meteor hammers in my hands!" ”

As a result, the Hujieren got the reputation of a hammer in Shanyu.

It's just that there are pros and cons to everything.

The Hujie people are brave, savage, and not afraid of death.

But there is no organization, and even less discipline.

Rush up, don't care about it at all.

Even if it dies, no one will take a step back!

Such a unit is a double-edged sword.

If it is smooth, of course, it will make the enemy fearful.

But once at a disadvantage, such cavalry will not play any role at all except to send heads to the well-organized Han army array.

Just like the battle on the banks of Yuwu Water, the five thousand charging Hujie cavalry, and the two who came back alive were not even two thousand!

And their results were only hundreds of Han soldiers.

The exchange is more tragic than miserable!

Wei Lu, who was born in Han and has received a complete military education, has always felt a headache for such subordinates.

Just like now.

Although he repeatedly ordered that no one should be called out to have fun.

But, it's useless!

From the commander of ten thousand horsemen to the cavalry below, no one listened to him.

There were even people who directly replied when he stopped him: "King Ding Ling, don't meddle in our affairs!" ”

"This is the tradition and belief of the Hujie people!"

"Warriors, they are preparing for their ascension to the realm of the gods in the future!"

"Killing, conquering, plundering, this is the mission that the gods have promised us!"

Thinking of this, Wei Lu shook his head again: "It would be nice if my direct Wanqi was here!" ”

As the king of Ding Ling of the Huns, under the command of Wei Lu, there are two teams of 10,000 horsemen directly under him.

They are his Gaoche Army and Qin Army.

The Gaoche Army is an army organized by Ding Lingren, Huns, Hu people and Sai people in the Western Regions.

They were famous for their ox carts and horse-drawn carts, which had tall wheels.

As for the Qin army, it was organized by Han Chinese who had surrendered, been captured, and fled to the Xiongnu over the years.

Both of these forces, although neither of them are very numerous.

But well-organized and well-trained, he was his trump card and the elite of the Huns.

It's a pity that they are all in the Tien Shan Mountains now.

Thinking of this, Wei Lu felt a little irritable.

At this time, one of his henchmen, Wang Wang, the former Han lieutenant who fled with him to the Huns, came over and arched his hand: "Brother Yin, the messenger sent to the wolf has news!" ”

"Did the Han Dynasty people agree?" Wei Lu asked.

"No...... The Han Dynasty did not agree to the envoy's entry into the fortress, but let it return the way it came! ”

Wei Lu stood up suddenly, looked south, and raised his hand: "The people of the Han Dynasty are going to make a move!" ”

"Don't let the messenger into the jam, it's a signal!" "I have read the commune's treatise on war, and there is a chapter in it that says: War is an act of violence that compels the enemy to bend our will, and therefore war is the continuation of politics by another means......"

"Now that he has politically rejected the emissary, it is tantamount to declaring that he is going to go to war!"

"A politics of bloodshed to get there!"

"What is his purpose?" Wei Lu stared at Wang Wang and asked.

When Wang Wang heard this, he shook his head.

Where can he guess?

Wei Lu swore an oath, and looked confidently at the south of the curtain in the distance, the grassland beyond the horizon.

"Who is Zhang Zizhong?" Wei Lu asked.

Wang Wang still shook his head.

But Wei Lu is already asking and answering himself.

"He is a disciple of Dong Zhongshu and the future leader of Ram Studies!"

"The core of the ram study is to respect the king and conquer the king, which is the great unification!"

"The nine tribes of Wuheng in the south of the country, those few rebellious tribes must be his target!"

Wei Lu counted with his fingers: "Left and right are just those old friends of mine......"

"Hulu Department, Xianyu Department, or the new friend Zhushui Department who just came ......"

"Especially the ...... of the Luxury Department and the Xianyu Department"

Speaking of this, Wei Lu raised his head and said with a smile: "The opportunity has come!" He'll throw himself into the net! Give the order at once, gather all the cavalry! ”

"I'm going to give my township party a big welcome gift!"

"The Han people have a saying: Sandpiper and clam compete for fishermen and profits!"

"Brother Wang, let's be a fisherman......"

…………………………

In the Great Tent, the military meeting continues.

Gazing at the sand table, where Yu Ze was.

Zhang Yue knew that it should be the Erenhot area in the later generations, or some of the areas belonged to the Xilin Gol area?

Before the crossing, Zhang Yue had not traveled to the local area, but he had heard that many dinosaur fossils had been unearthed in the local area.

Moreover, the climate is dry and there is little water.

However, that is the world 2,000 years later.

Today, this area is rich in water and soil, lush vegetation, dense lakes, and more than 10 large and small rivers shuttle during the period.

On the contrary, the Hulunbuir Prairie, which was considered to be the most beautiful pasture in China in later generations, had a relatively cold climate and was sparsely populated.

So, even if you have been there, the current situation will be completely different.

Two thousand years is enough time for the earth to undergo vicissitudes of life.

Thinking of these in his heart, Zhang Yue began to give orders.

"General Sima, please lead the cavalry of the Captain of Wuheng to Nanchi, cross Pingze, and then make a detour to the southwest, and enter Yanze between Luze and Gonglushui to stand by!" Zhang Yue said to Sima Xuan: "We must cut off the path for the thieves to flee north!" ”

"Within seven days, the cavalry of the Captain of Wuheng must complete the task!"

"Can the general be confident?"

Sima Xuan immediately patted his chest and promised: "Please rest assured, within seven days, the cavalry of the Captain of Wuheng will definitely be in place!" ”

Now, the cavalry of the Captain of Wuheng has all been equipped with horseshoes, stirrups and saddles.

Battlefield mobility has been greatly improved!

In the past, marches that took at least ten days to complete, now they have more than seven days.

Moreover, for the cavalry of the Captain of Wuheng, such a rapid march was not very difficult.

Because, in fact, they are fighting on the inside line, and they can get a sufficient supply of horses.

Not to mention, they can first gallop to Nanchi at the expense of horsepower, and then repair it overnight, change the war horse, continue to attack, and change the war horse again in Pyeongtaek.

In this way, the distance that actually requires full maneuver is only about 700 miles.

For war horses, such a distance, although the intensity is very high, is not unacceptable.

What's even better is that he can also make a false move, deliberately go north in Pyeongtaek, make a posture to go to Xianyubu, but in fact, take advantage of the night to detour to the southwest, outflanking the area of Yanze on the south bank of Gonglushui.

Zhang Yue then looked at Xu Xiangru and said to him: "General Xu, please lead the Changshui Spirit Cavalry, from Wuzhou out of the fortress, march to Longcheng, and then from Longcheng, go straight to the eastern flank of Huze......"

Zhang Yue pointed to an area on the sand table: "Within five days, we will arrive at Honghuze east of Luze!" Is there confidence? ”

"Five days?!" Xu Xiangru was a little panicked.

From Wuzhou to Longcheng, it is almost five hundred miles.

Dragon City to Honghuze is also about the same distance.

In other words, he was to march a thousand miles in five days.

People can hold on, but what about horses?

Even if the plains outside the Saiwai are flat, it is now an excellent marching season, and the horses can get plenty of pasture and drinking water on the spot.

But it's still an impossible thing to do.

It is even very likely that before reaching Honghuze, more than half of the horses will die first!

"The general can replenish the war horse on the spot!" Zhang Yue looked at the continuation and told him: "Don't pity the horsepower!" ”

"After defeating the Huluxe Department, there are tens of thousands of war horses alone, enough for generals to change horses!"

The subtext of the idea is that it is authorized to continue to do so, and that all the means he deems appropriate can be used to ensure the speed of the march.

These included the requisition of tribal horses, livestock, and males along the route.

As soon as I heard it, I immediately had no opinion.

Set a small goal first, such as 1 second to remember: Book Keju mobile version reading website:
